Ya know, Tim, I remember reading you years ago when I was on
cypherpunks the first time. I used to think you were an anarchist,
individualist, libertarian -- and that's still the most consistent
thread in your posts. But over the few weeks I've been back it's
become clear to me that the most important thing to you now is
giving offense.
Why? What changed? Why does it matter if some chowderhead believes
in gun control? Why was it worth your effort to flame this guy?

Got my first gun when I was 12, and my granny did, in fact, "pack
heat".... but it wasn't worth *my* time to write a flame.
